Вы почти сорвали очень важное совещание! Мы конечно довольны вашей работой, вы очень добросовестный работник, но нужно что-то делать с вашей рассеянностью. Misha:Простите меня, Ольга Николаевна. Я и не знаю что сказать! Мне очень стыдно, что так получилось. Boss:Вы заместитель начальника отдела! А какой пример вы подаете?! Это мое последнее предупреждение. В следующий раз мне придется принять меры. Misha:Я понимаю. Просто у меня батарейки на будильнике сели, потом я не мог найти ключи от квартиры, и, вдобавок к этому, я застрял в пробке. Boss:Не надо рассказывать мне басни. Просто сознайтесь, что проспали. У вас даже лицо заспанное, и перо в волосах торчит. Misha: Ой! ----Formal English---- Boss:Mikhail, how much longer are you going to keep coming in late? You almost sabotaged a very important meeting. Although we are happy with your performance and you are a very responsible person, something should be done about your absent-mindedness! Misha:I am very sorry, Olga Nikolaevna. I don't know what to say. I am very ashamed of my behavior. Boss:You are the Deputy Director! And do you think you are a good example to the rest of the team? This is my last warning to you. Next time I will have to do something about it. Misha:I understand. It is just that the batteries in my alarm clock went flat, and after that I couldn't find the keys to my apartment, and what's more, I got stuck in a traffic jam. Boss:Oh, No need to make up stories! Just admit it, you overslept. You even have a sleepy face, and a feather is sticking out of your hair. Misha:Oops! --------------------------- Learn Russian with RussianPod101!

Прости, что я тебя подвел. Marina:Ничего. Мне было очень комфортно сидеть на двух креслах. Misha:В городе, как всегда, ужасные пробки... Как фильм? Marina:Очень интересный. Я бы рекомендовала тебе его посмотреть. Качество, звук, игра отлично продуманы. Особенно меня впечатлили спецэффекты. А сюжет... Прям за душу взял. Не зря этот фильм получил "Оскар" в номинации «Лучший фильм года». Мне так понравилось, что я даже забыла разозлиться на тебя за то, что ты оставил меня одну. Misha:Ха-ха... Мне повезло. Хотя везунчиком меня трудно назвать. Пойдем в кафе, я угощу тебя кофе, и ты расскажешь, что у тебя новенького. Мы давно не виделись. Marina:Пошли. Ты мне тоже расскажешь, как у тебя получается все время опаздывать. Misha:Ты же сказала, что не злишься? Marina:Расслабься. Я пошутила. ----Formal English---- Misha:Hello Marina. Sorry for letting you down. Marina:It's okay. I was very comfortable sitting in two chairs. Misha:There are horrible traffic jams in the city as always... How was the movie? Marina:It was very interesting. I would recommend that you watch it. The quality, sound and story were thought through very well. I was particularly impressed with the special effects. And the story line just touched my heart. No wonder this movie got an Oscar nomination for Best Film. I liked it so much that I even forgot to get angry with you for leaving me by myself. Misha:(Laughs) I was lucky. But I could hardly call myself lucky! Okay, let's go to the café, I'll treat you to a coffee and you can tell me what's going on in your life. Marina:Okay, let's go. And you can tell me how you always manage to be late. Misha:You said you weren't angry at me! Marina:Relax! I was just kidding. --------------------------- Learn Russian with RussianPod101!

Я заняла нам места. Давай быстрей! Фильм начинается через пять минут! Misha:Я в пути. В городе ужасные пробки и, похоже, мы застряли. Впереди авария, и из-за нее мы не можем сдвинутся с места уже 20 минут. Marina:Почему ты мне раньше не позвонил? Мы бы перенесли нашу встречу. Теперь мне придется смотреть фильм одной и съесть две порции попкорна. Я так и знала!!! Misha:Прости! Так неудобно получилось. Я знаю, я всегда опаздываю, но в этот раз, я честно ненарочно... Я до последней секунды надеялся, что мы вот-вот сдвинемся с мертвой точки... Marina:Мдаааа, как предсказуемо... Но, как говорится, надежда умирает последней. Надеюсь, что ты хотя бы к концу фильма доберешься до кинотеатра. Misha:Я очень постараюсь. С меня напиток, чтобы загладить свою вину. Marina:Ловлю на слове. Все, пока! Фильм уже начинается. ----Formal English---- Marina: Misha, where are you? I've saved seats for us. Hurry up! The movie starts in 5 minutes. Misha: I'm on my way. There are terrible traffic jams in the city and it seems like we've gotten stuck here. Because of the car accident ahead, we haven't been able to move for 20 minutes now. Marina: Why didn't you call me before? We could've postponed our appointment. Now I will have to watch the movie alone and eat two boxes of popcorn. Oh, I knew it! Misha: I'm sorry. I feel very guilty. I know I'm always late, but this time I haven't done it on purpose. I really believed that we were just about to move. Marina: Yeah, that's so predictable. But as they say, hope dies last. I hope that you will get to the cinema by the end of the movie at least. Misha: I will really do my best. I owe you a drink to make up for my mistake. Marina: I am taking you at your word. Okay, bye! The movie is about to start. --------------------------- Learn Russian with RussianPod101!
